Abstract :
In this paper, a (491, 3, 6) time-varying LDPC-CC decoder chip supporting five code-rates is implemented in 90nm CMOS technology. The decoder containing 5 processors occupies 2.24 mm2 and provides twice faster decoding convergence speed. Maximum throughput 2.37 Gb/s is measured under 1.2 V supply with a 0.024 nJ/bit/proc energy efficiency.
